Exmouth Beach Wheelchair Service Volunteers

Volunteer – Become Involved – Make a Difference 

Exmouth Beach Wheelchair Service is a new service being provided by Exmouth Town Council from a purpose-built unit on Queens Drive, Exmouth, near the Lifeboat Station.

We hope to open for service imminently and we are looking to grow our team of volunteers so that we can provide a wheelchair rental service, initially from Thursday to Sunday ever week between the hours of 10am and 4pm.

We need volunteers to be on hand to welcome users/hirers at the storage unit on the seafront and ensure that all bookings go smoothly. It is a great way to meet new people and help everyone, regardless of age or mobility, to enjoy Exmouth’s ‘Blue Flag’ beach.

Have you got what it takes?

You do not need any specific experience to become a volunteer, just good communication skills and enthusiasm. Some knowledge and interest in disabilities would be an advantage and basic computer skills would be helpful.

Volunteers will have the option to cover either am or pm sessions and choose when and how often they work.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer and making a difference in Exmouth, please contact Mollie Carey at Exmouth Town Council on 01395 276167 or email beachwheelchairs@exmouth.gov.uk.
